Chelsea have confirmed their starting XI against Tottenham, with João Pedro missing out and Geovany Quenda starting alongside Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers.

Geovany Quenda has been named in Chelsea's starting lineup against Tottenham Hotspur after striker Joao Pedro was ruled out with a late knock. Manager Xabi Alonso has restructured the attack, deploying Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers in support of Quenda, while Pedro Neto and Jorrel Hato feature as wing-backs.
Mike Penders starts in goal behind a defense featuring Josh Acheampong, Maxence Lacroix, and Levi Colwill, with Jordan Henderson and Moisés Caicedo anchoring the midfield. Chelsea face a Tottenham team managed by Roberto De Zerbi, who recently secured their first league win of the season.
